“Behold, I will lift My hand in an oath to the nations,
And set up My1 standard for the peoples;
They shall bring your sons in their1 arms,
And your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders;
And their queens your nursing mothers;
They shall bow down to you with their faces to the earth,
And blick up the dust of your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord,
cFor they shall not be ashamed who wait for Me.”
Or the captives1 of the righteous be delivered?
“Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away,
And the prey of the terrible be delivered;
For I will contend with him who contends with you,
And I will save your children.
And they shall be drunk with their own bblood as with sweet wine.
All flesh cshall know
That I, the Lord, am your Savior,
And your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.”
| << Isaiah 49:23 | Isaiah 49:25 >> |
